The quickest way is bring down the server that you lost you password
using "bootable media" procedure
as if you are running on an local box. The difference is that your going
to use another linux guest to do the
recovery for you.
"detach " the minidisk where "/" is resided on
"#cp link suse93 .... .... mr" from the recovery id
mount the partition "mount /dev/?????? /mnt "
"chroot /mnt"
"passwd"
"exit"

Hello,
We are running Suse Linux 9.3 (64 bit) under z/VM 5.1. One of the
administrators changed the root password and forgot the password. Does
anyone know how to recover the root password? Thanks.
Miguel A Roman.
